As far as reproductions go... that's an understatement.
Often... "that's close enough"... get's produced.
Your attention to detail and diligence is impressive... this is one of the most successful reproduction efforts I've seen. Looking forward to seeing some cord with the ferrules (on my bus!).
Cheers,

I'm super sorry guys... On the first 5 sets i sent out... I didn't put enough postal on the envelopes ... so sorry guys... I measured the weight on the scale, but they told me it's different pricing went it is not a flat envelope... It's going to cost about 80 cents to pick it up from the post office.. The last sets i sent out from the post office so they are correct.. I'm only sending them from the post office from this point on... _________________ ***WANTED***
